Advantageous environment of micro-patterned, high-density complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor electrode array for spiral ganglion neurons cultured in vitro

Abstract This study investigated micro-patterned, high-density complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) electrode array to be used as biologically permissive environment for organization, guidance and electrical stimulation of spiral ganglion neurons (SGN). SGNs extracted and isolated from coc...
